- God grant the weary
A calm and sweet repose
And with Thy tenderest blessing
May my eyelids close.
Comfort all poor sinners
That's watching this night in pain
And those thats planning evil
Oh, God, only them restrain
And when the morning wakens
Then may I arise
Pure and fresh and sinless
In Thy Holy Eyes.- Informant

- Good Friday was the day,
When Our Saviour's heart was pierced,
From side to side.
His Blessed Mother standing by,
With a heavy heart and a dismal cry.
Whoever says this prayer
Three times a day and three times a night
Shall never see Hell Nor the gates of Purgatory
Shall never enter in.
